The Charas Community brings you another chain game, over two years in the making! Charas proudly presents A Heart of Gold, a gun toting cowboy filled rpg!
Jimmy is a young lad with grand dreams as he left home on a journey to become a successful miner. But not all is right in the land, lately cowboys who perish in the harsh desert returns to a state of unlife. The dead seems to be drawn to people who wield the power of magic. Jimmy and his new friends journey west to find a way to protect their magic wielding companion.
What is a chain game?
Remember when you were a kid and played that game when you would fold a piece of paper, draw the start of a creature, and then fold it again and your friend would draw the next part? Then you'd do it back and forth a couple of time when finally you unfold it and look at your creation.
A chain game is basically that: one person starts making a part of the game and when they feel it's reached a good point they sends it off to the next developer on the list. The end result might not always be the most polished game out there but it's an interesting journey where each part of the game bears the unique mark of it's developer.

Dude, what a beautiful game, do you think it’s possible to make the source file available for translation? I'm Brazilian and I would love to translate your game into my language
I just found out about this project! as a person that's been developing his own rpg for over 14 years on rpgmaker 2003 this is crazy! its so good! please contact me in any social media if you're working in any future chain project! my email is blazt.0101@gmail.com I can help, I'm a skilled animator and programmer in rpgmaker 2003 I would LOVE to do a chapter myself or do sprites for you. I also recommended every friend I have that likes rpgs this game since I had so much fun!!!
yall have twitter?
I like that I couldn't predict the story of this one using tropes or logic. It was a quite a ride though. Looking forward to your next game.
That was actually a fun game! I liked most of the characters even if ya'll didn't have a brother or sister in yo party. Hackett's design as a character gave each battle a twist but ya'll didn't give mah man much story. What gives? Also why did the photographer guy stay in the game? Man he was annoying and don't add much to battles.
Good game!
